With the dollar and and the euro flexing their muscles, perhaps it's time to rub the old favourites off the holiday list. Benji Lanyado recommends five destinations where sterling is still faring well<p>Remember the good old days, when the pound was strong as an ox? This time last year, when it was <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2007/apr/17/usnews.money">worth $2</a>, we were having a field day in New York's shops. Over in Thailand, long a preserve of Brits on a budget, we were getting well over 60 baht, and the euro was coming in at a none-too-shabby €1.37. </p><p>How times change. The pound has lost over 25% on the dollar, you'll be lucky to get 50 baht - and the euro? According to <a href="http://www.pintprice.com/">pintprice.com</a>, a beer in Paris will now cost you the equivalent of &pound;5.58. Surely the old holiday favourites of France, Spain, Italy, Thailand and America will be given a wide berth next year.</p> <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/travel/2008/nov/20/budget-creditcrunch-travel">Continue reading...</a>TravelBudget travelCredit crunchIcelandReykjavikIstanbulTurkeyMexicoSouth AfricaCape TownSafarisSkiingForeign currencyConsumer affairsMoneyThu, 20 Nov 2008 11:57:05 GMThttp://www.theguardian.com/travel/2008/nov/20/budget-creditcrunch-travelMurad Sezer/APThe new New York?
